1979 DG Racer 2

70's BMX Ferrari

Got this framset from 'Sexnbmx' here on the Museum and built it up. It was a 'barn find' in the San Diego area that was originally red with the gold & black decals. He repowdered it candy red along with the Powerlite forks and added the blue decals.
The reason I know it is a Racer II is the weight - it is incredibly light; almost a pound lighter that my 1979 Mongoose Team issue frameset which is also 100% chromoly.
All the parts on this are either NOS or darn close. I tried to make this build 'era correct' with top tier parts. Hope you enjoy it!
